What would you do if your girlfriend decides to chop off her locks and go bald, because she wants to experiment with herself?

I had waist length hair and I got bald. My partner and parents are rather supportive of me except for the fact that my guy loved to play tabla over my bald head.

I was at a stage in my life, where things were all good. I was doing good in school, had a supportive partner, supportive parents and good future, but I felt stuck. I was feeling just so stagnant and desperately needed a change.
Guys, would you mind if your girlfriend decided to go bald?
Although, I can understand for the guys who are currently in a happy relationship and they love their partner for more than just their looks or if, god forbids, she has a medical condition, but for the rest of us, I can bet that an average guy (considering he is okay looking, he gets attention sometimes, he has options in dating world) would NEVER go for such kind of woman unless she's super popular or a public figure. (Some ultra rare exceptions apart)
This. Is. Ugly.
I never get such guys on the G@G. Online, they have ridiculously low standards, but in the real life, most of them are still single.
Personally, it is impossible for me to pick such type of girl. I hate pixie cuts too. Even shoulder length hair isn't appealing to me. And it's not my fault. It's in my nature to get attracted to certain things only. The shorter the hair, the worse it is. But... if I'm already in a serious relationship and my partner gets cancer or something, I'd not ditch her. I'd be supportive whole my life... which is a different case as I mentioned above.
If you really wanted to do this and it makes you happy like you have achieved your dreams... kudos to you. It's great that your family supports you and your partner is very genuine and loyal.
We all are different and that's a very good thing. Diversity is good for our survival. But tbh, one (the answerers) should not lie here. You'll get nothing by doing that.
Only if she looks at least as attractive as Karen Gillan. But on a serious note - short hair would be OK. I'd say 1 cm short is acceptable for experimenting. But bald? No. Bald doesn't look good for most people. When you go bald, you have to regularly shave and wax your head to keep it smooth. Otherwise, you'll have that "last stage cancer patient" look. For example, since I mentioned Ms. Gillan, below are pictures that I think look repulsive, and acceptable (though still wierd).
The chick on the picture looks good, but you have to take into account it is a well set-up photo, and she has a ton of makeup on. She might not look that appealing when she washed off the makeup, and again, looks like a cancer patient.
Ultimately, it's not a dealbreaker, but you gotta be damn attractive to pull it off. Examples how NOT to do it: Amber Rose. Yuck.
My sister just did this for a fresh start on her hair. She had it styled and colored really crazy, so when she was done with that she chopped it all off so all her hair grows back even. Her husband supports her, and offered to help her clip it.
My boyfriend says he wouldn't really have a problem with it, but he'd rather I keep my long hair. I don't really like the bald look, neither for women or men, so I'm not sure I'd be as opened as him to my girlfriend (if I had one)
Sometimes I do miss braiding my hair but 9/10 would do again. Since I was growing my hair since I was 7, and didn't cut my hair much till I was 16, so I'm glad that I can now wash my hair everyday and being bald can actually look sexy, although I end up looking like a boy since I'm short and petite and like to wear baggy tees.
Awwwwe thanks. My guy tells everyone that I'm his younger cousin brother. So, you can understand how I look. 😂😂😂😂 But it doesn't matter, he still finds me hot.
I don't know. I'm looking at big picture. What is motivating a person to still be doing things like this, making these big, drastic alterations? How stable is she, are our personalities similar enough to work? It is hair, it will grow back. If she has no intention of growing her hair back ever than we might not be a good match. I'd be analyzing if this is a sign that she's not really stable and more "experimenting" may be coming down the road that I want no part of.
I'd be evaluating if she's the type who could give her heart fully to a guy and someone you could have a future with which calls for two people being selfless. She comes off as really "it's all about me and my issues... I've got to find myself" and I would be putting on a nice front but I'd really be evaluating who I am with and if a future would ever be possible.
Yup! I've seen it and it's considerably unattractive... But it's not something I'm going to force but I will make a strong case against it. But I will say that I have always had hair and never shaved my head and neither as any of my family members so that may play a part in it..
I think guys are being too nice in this one I for one wouldn't like it I love for a woman to have long hair for me women look much better that way and I would expect a mutual decision to be made just as I wouldn't want to do anything to make her unhappy and in return I expect the same
@MysteriousDarkness really? So your opinion is she does anything she wants and you're under her foot? Relationship is a partnership both have to be happy I for one am not if she does this and she understands it so she wouldn't do it in the first place it has to be a mutual understanding
@Guy30031994 If what she wants to do with her hair would make her happy but not you then she is not allowed do it. So you control how her looks. Way to let her be herself 👎
You misunderstood me completely I don't force anything but she wouldn't because she considers my opinion and what I like about her hair but you don't seem to get that just like I wouldn't go out drinking every weekend with my buds to make her unhappy with my social behaviour do you get it now or do I have to break it down even further? @MisteriousDarkness I think you're out of date on this if you don't understand it
I actually told my girlfriend to shave her head and she thought i was joking. She loves her hair. It goes down to her ass and she takes forever to dry it and whatever. I wish she didn't take so long managing it so we could spend more time together but she loves it so much. oh well, she can do what she wants with it. =^)
I've actually been through this with my wife. She decided that she wanted to cut of her hair. While I personally was against it as long hair is my 2nd favorite feature on a female, next to the eyes. I supported her decision and eventually she decided she didn't really care for it. The point is as long as your guy supports you even if he doesn't like it, then you know he cares about you for more than your looks.
I'd mind but not really care. I try to keep myself in shape not for my benefit bit to look attractive to my partner. I often take a girlfriend to the barber with me to pick out my hair cut because she's the one who cares and looks at it. I even let them pick out my clothes cause I don't care about it other than how it makes them feel.
I would not like it unless there was a legitimate reason for doing so... like cancer or supporting a family member that has cancer. Don't get me wrong... bald girls can still look atrractive, depending on their facial structure. But, I will always choose long hair over the other options given the choice.
It surprises me that majority of guys on here are saying they don't mind, when actually majority of people are attracted to the person they're dating or with whom they're are in a relationship hugely based on looks...
That's not feminist any way. Being a feminist, I do not condone such a behaviour. This is really psychotic but trust me not feminist. Please don't term this as feminist. Feminism doesn't mean hating men.
She told me she was a feminist, she started going to their gatherings, she started chanting their stuff. She told me that she hated my guts and that I was part of the patriarchy. She wore her feminist shirts, she started saying that all men are rapists, and on and on with that shit. If she she isn't a feminist then she belongs to a secret society branch of it.
Shit man! That's some serious red flags. And psuedo feminism. Feminism doesn't mean that women are better than men, it means we are equals, we strive for equality.
"Shit man!" it is starting to come out, what happened to sweet "Sad to hear that." I don't care what you believe or think, I lived in it growing up and seem to always attract feminists and every one of them is all about superiority. It is an evil movement that is suckering you in as a follower. Over time you will start to breath the hate that it incites and eventually you will be marching alongside some of my exes. You are just too young to know any better yet.
Nah, my dad is a feminist and so is my mom and elder sister. Even my boyfriend is one. But what I know of feminism, it means equality for both. I've been taught to pay if I'm out with a guy, I've been taught to not expect the guy to pay, I've been taught that it's ok if my partner earns less than me, I've taught that if a guy cries in front of me, it doesn't make him gay or less of a man. I've been taught to hold boys and girls equally accountable for the same thing. But never have I been taught that if I'm a girl, I'm better than a guy. This isn't some competition. This is a struggle for equality. If you live amongst such people, I'm sorry to inform you that you don't know any true feminist. Feminism means equality for all, regardless of their gender or race or ethnicity or religion.
Well I don't have a girlfriend but if I had one I would support her and let her do her own thing but I would question what the hell is she thinking and question if she is ok. Honestly tho I don't really like blad as a hair choice on women. So I would probably find her slightly less attractive. Also I most likely wouldn't be interested in dating someone who decides to go bald, if we are not currently dating.
I tend to identify people by their hair textures. So that would throw me off for a while. That being said, I'd be okay if I loved her, but if it was just someone I was considering dating, I'd drop the thought.
It's her head and I'm sure she would look beautiful no matter what. I have alwasy loved long hair on women, but there are some women who look gorgeous with short/bald looks.
I wouldn't mind at all, especially if it meant she was bald on every part of her body. Anyway, a bare scalp can be very receptive to stroking and affection.
Support her, and be sincere about her and her looks, many times a change of that kind means a change of personality, so may be it doesn't fit with the nowadays her, but it may fit with the future her
I wouldn't prefer it but I think I'd be okay with it. My current girlfriend has the sides of her head shaved and I don't mind that, but I do think I would prefer her with longer hair.
Absolutely NOT. I only date girls with long hair, something I look for in girls when asking out. I will be willing to break up if she ruins her hair. Enough is enough.
To me it depends if they can pull it off or not. Would support them no matter what though. in my opinion its a bit self centered to drop someone because of a hair cut
Nope... bald head sucks... im a man and my hair is everything lol... what else can i waste my time at but staring and the mirror trying to shape it well lol
I won't say to my girl "no, you cant/dont do that", but honestly? It would affect my sexual stimulation. If its a health condition i would 100% support it, but not if its just a trend thing.
This reminds of that friends episode at the beach with Ross and Bonnie. I would have shame same reaction as Ross. If a girl likes it fine more power to her but probably should warn their boyfriend before they brave the shave.
Unless, heaven forbid there were medical reasons for it hell yes!!! Lol, if she did I might just hospitalize her myself... Jk, bald is bad.

I would hate it and wouldn't like her as much. I would consider it unfeminine and terrible. I like girls with long or very long hair because it shows their femininity.
If I think a girl is attractive enough to date her then I am still going to like her bald. I definitely prefer her to have hair though even if her hair is short
I wouldn't like it much, but if she want to see how it looks, fine. It will not be as pretty as with long hair ofcourse

i HATE, absolutely HATE, short and bald hair.. if she develops cancer and cuts it off since she's gonna lose it during chemo anyway, then that's one thing but, just lopping it off just to lop it off, is NOT ok
